nose bleeds

[Crazyfamily]

Hi All,
I have a 2 year old boy and during summer he suffered bad nose bleeds while sleeping. I had put it down to heat. But..now he has started having them again and it isn't hot anymore. Has anyone else had this happen and do you think I need to see a doctor?
thanks for any help you can give.

I used to have the same problem when i was a kid...

I had really weak blood vessels in my nose and they would burst in heat, slight knocks to the nose, picking my nose (i was a KID!)...

Check that he isnt picking his nose, or falling over...

Check it out with a doctor because there is things that they can do to strenghten the vessels.

thanks Michelle. I had thought of the nose picking thing. He is a kid after all..I will take him to get it checked so that I at least know it isn't anything bad.
